A bed that traverses countless worlds

"Wait..." The voice came again, ethereal and distant, as if it had drifted from a faraway time and space.

Lin Yu frowned; this ancient castle was indeed eerie in every way.

"What's there to be afraid of!" he told himself, trying to embolden himself as he continued to lower the bed.

The passageway was narrow and long, filled with a rotten, musty smell, much like the stench of a single person's socks after thirty years of being single.

Lin Yu pinched his nose, feeling as if he were drifting in a sewer.

"This taste is amazing! Ugh~" He suppressed the urge to vomit, mentally ranting.

Finally, the passage opened up, and Lin Yu arrived at a spacious basement.

It was pitch black all around, with only a few flickering will-o'-the-wisps providing a faint light.

The air was thick with a nauseating stench of decay, and the ground was littered with various skeletons and broken tools.

"Good heavens, is this a giant garbage recycling station?" Lin Yu couldn't help but complain.

Suddenly, the bed beneath his feet shook violently, triggering some kind of mechanism.

"Holy crap! What's going on?!" Before Lin Yu could react, he saw magic circles lighting up on the ground, emitting a faint blue light.

"No way, are you serious?!"

Countless streams of magical energy surged forth from the magic circle, coiling towards him like venomous snakes.

"My God!" Lin Yu was so frightened that he was scared out of his wits and quickly maneuvered the bed to avoid it.

The bed jostled and lurched in the cramped basement, as if possessed by Takumi Fujiwara, and started drifting.

The magical energy relentlessly pursued them, blasting craters into the basement.

"This is so exciting!" Lin Yu exclaimed while trying to control the direction of the bed.

During the process of dodging, Lin Yu discovered that these magical energies seemed to have a certain pattern and were not completely random attacks.

"Wait, let me study this carefully..." He maneuvered the bed to a relatively safe place and stopped, carefully observing the changes in the magic circle.

"This thing looks familiar..." Lin Yu stroked his chin, suddenly realizing something.

"Hehe, looks like I don't need to follow the usual methods..." A sly smile appeared on his lips as he reached out and pressed a few buttons on the control panel by the bedside.

"System, activate special mode!" "Buzz—" The bed vibrated slightly, and a visible energy wave spread from under the bed, reflecting the blue light of the magic circle. It actually began to absorb the magical energy that was attacking it!

"Whoosh! Take off!" Lin Yu shouted excitedly, as if he had transformed into an energy black hole, frantically devouring the surrounding magical energy.

This scene stunned the ghost of the castle who was secretly observing.

She floated in mid-air, her translucent body shimmering with an eerie light, her empty eyes filled with confusion.

"Who...just who is this guy? How can he absorb magical energy?"

As magical energy continued to flow in, the light emanating from the bed grew brighter and brighter, and Lin Yu felt his entire body brimming with power.

"Awesome! Give me some more!" He greedily absorbed the energy, like a glutton who could never get enough to eat.

Finally, the magic circle's energy was exhausted, the blue light gradually dissipated, and the basement returned to calm.

Lin Yu manipulated the bed to slowly descend to the ground, feeling as if he were in a dream.

"Phew, finally done." He breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Just then, he noticed a glittering treasure chest in the corner of the basement.

"Wow, there's an unexpected bonus!" Lin Yu maneuvered the bed to the treasure chest and examined it carefully.

The treasure chest was covered with intricate magical runes, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.

"This seal is quite interesting..." Lin Yu studied the runes with great interest, his fingers gently tracing patterns on them.

Instead of using brute force to break the seal, he gently tapped along the lines of the runes with a peculiar rhythm.

"Thump, thump, thump..." The knocking sound echoed in the basement, like an ancient melody.

As the tapping continued, the runes on the treasure chest gradually lit up, emitting a dazzling light.

With a "click," the lock on the treasure chest popped open automatically, revealing the treasure inside.

Lin Yu couldn't wait to open the treasure chest, where he saw a gem that emitted a seven-colored light lying quietly inside.

"Holy crap! What kind of treasure is this?!" He carefully picked up the gem, and a powerful energy instantly surged into his body, making him feel full of strength.

"This feeling... is amazing!" Lin Yu gripped the gem tightly, a surge of inexplicable excitement welling up inside him.

Suddenly, he felt a chilling aura coming from behind him.

"Who?!" Lin Yu turned around abruptly, only to find that there was no one behind him.

"Hehe..." A soft laugh rang in my ears, "Don't be nervous, I'm just very curious about you..."

Lin Yu turned around abruptly and saw a semi-transparent figure floating in mid-air, its graceful figure outlined by a faint blue light.

It was the castle ghost I'd caught a glimpse of earlier in the corridor.

"What are you curious about?" Lin Yu raised an eyebrow, completely unfazed.

The castle ghost chuckled, her voice as clear as a wind chime: "You can actually absorb magical energy, how... interesting." She floated to Lin Yu's bedside, curiously examining the magical bed. "This bed is a treasure too." She stretched out her slender fingers and gently touched the edge of the bed, a current-like sensation spreading throughout her body.

"Hiss..." She withdrew her hand, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

This scene was witnessed by Su Yao, who was observing Lin Yu through magical images.

Seeing the castle ghost approach Lin Yu intimately, Su Yao was immediately consumed by jealousy. "What's wrong with this ghost? How dare it seduce my man!" She stomped her feet in anger.

Aisha, standing nearby, quickly comforted her, "Sister Yao, don't be angry, maybe it's just a misunderstanding." Alice, however, fanned the flames, "I don't think it's a misunderstanding. This ghost is so beautiful, Lin Yu might like this type." "Alice! Shut up!" Su Yao glared at Alice, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Sensing Su Yao's anger, Lin Yu quickly explained, "Yao Yao, you've misunderstood. I have nothing to do with this ghost! She's just interested in my bed." He shrugged helplessly. What a mess!

To prove his innocence, Lin Yu truthfully recounted his conversation with the castle ghost to Su Yao, Aisha, and Alice.

"Is that really all?" Su Yao asked suspiciously.

"More real than real gold!" Lin Yu swore, raising three fingers.

Seeing his sincerity, Su Yao calmed down, and Alice wisely shut her mouth as well.

Lin Yu thus defused a war between women.

After exploring the basement, Lin Yu discovered a hidden door in a corner, covered with mysterious runes, which seemed to lead to the top of the castle tower.

"System, scan." "Ding! Scan complete. This door leads to the top of the castle tower, but a special key is required to open it." "A key? Where can I find one?" Lin Yu stroked his chin, deep in thought.

“Perhaps, it’s in this castle…” The castle ghost floated to the hidden door, gently stroking the runes. “This door hasn’t been opened in a long time…” She turned to Lin Yu. “You want to go to the top of the tower?” Lin Yu nodded. “Yes, I have a feeling that what I want is at the top of the tower.” The castle ghost gave a mysterious smile: “I can help you.” “How?” Lin Yu asked curiously.

The castle ghost pointed to a corner deep in the basement, "There, the key to open this door is hidden..."

“Let’s go,” Lin Yu said, maneuvering the bed towards the direction the castle ghost had indicated. “I hope this trip to the top of the tower won’t disappoint me…” The castle ghost floated beside him, its eyes gleaming with an inexplicable light, and whispered, “You… will see…”
